About
I’ve been creating art professionally for over a decade, and I absolutely love my job. My work has ended up all over the world, from the USA to Germany, Saudi Arabia, and London. Over the years, I’ve collaborated with interior designers such as Areen Design, who commissioned two collections of abstracts that are now hanging in a Royal Palace. My pieces have been exhibited in London galleries, including Lacey Road Gallery in Putney, and through Little Van Gogh, my work tours the UK, exhibiting in office spaces.
A bit about who I am. Well, I'm from a big family of artists, musicians, designers, photographers, and actors and I spent a lot of my childhood making art with my mum. I studied acting and worked as a professional actress for the last 10 years. Art was always an escape for me when I needed to take a breather from the rollercoaster of that life! I am married to a wonderful man called Daniel, and became a mum in 2022, and have 2 beautifully wild boys who love to crawl and climb around my art studio, making their own artistic marks ;)
I live in Surrey in the UK, where we are always surrounded by leafy trees and wildflowers grow thick and fast. Since moving out of London in 2017 I have slowly started making more botanical work as I learn more about the flowers that grow each season and nature's steady cycles.
Travelling to wild and untamed places like Iceland, the Scottish Highlands and Islands, Northumbria, and the Isles of Lundy and Bardsey has been the inspiration for my abstract work. I return to these landscapes again and again; their sense of stillness in the vast and rugged open spaces and the light sand sea and sky create. I am always looking for new ways to create texture in my paintings using natural materials like sand, plants and flowers.
In 2022 I had a solo exhibition called 'The Iceland Project.' This was as few years in the making after a few trips to Iceland, where I was learning about the natural landscape, climate change and gathering inspiration for a series of new work. I had no idea it would have such an impact and influence my work to date!
I love Iceland because of its natural beauty and unique landscape. It reminds me that the world is a mysterious and wonderful place, there’s still so much to be discovered.
Glaciers, geysers, the northern lights, volcanoes… it seems so many of the wonders of the world are found there!
The landscape offers a stunning set of colour palettes and textures that I have drawn on, sometimes bursting with vibrancy and other times, wonderfully bleak and moody.
As I study art and neuro science, I understand more and more about the importance of connecting with nature for our mental and physical well-being. Whether it’s a short walk through a park or a long hike across a mountain, the time we spend in nature calms the mind, soothes the nervous system, and restores balance.
Through my art, I aim to capture a little of that feeling, to bring the peace, energy, and grounding presence of the natural world into the spaces where we live and work. To surround ourselves with nature’s quiet beauty and feel healthier for it.
